A Father’s Fight for His Daughter’s Recovery

Chris Dryneck in Behchokǫ̀ is fighting for safe housing as his home crumbles around him—especially critical now that his 14-year-old daughter recovers from spinal surgery. Legally blind and caring for a child with disabilities, he can’t fix the bathroom with no running water for over a decade or seal holes letting bugs in. Despite years of appeals, including doctor’s letters stressing medical urgency, repairs remain elusive. The Tłıchǫ government says his home’s on their fall repair list, but Housing N.W.T. says his 2020 application failed eligibility checks. Dryneck’s endured broken promises and worsening conditions—leaky ceilings, freezing doors, drafty windows—just hoping for a home that lets his daughter heal in dignity.
